He left me.
Its been a year since he left and I have been a mess since. I act like a zombie or a machine on autamatic. My dad Charlie has threatened to send me to Jasksonville to live with my mom, but when he said those words I snapped. I pitched a tantrum. It was simple I did not want to go and so I am still here sitting on my windowseat watching the icestorm outside. It was beautiful.
Kids down the street were iceskating on the small pond that was in the Newton's yard. I dont know what drew me closer but i wanted to go skate on the ice, but I didn't have any skates.
As the days passed, I felt like there was something missing. Something besides my heart that would always belong to him. It took me a while to figure it out. I missed the ice. As an experiment I went to the pavilion, the iceskating rink right on the outside of town. I sat there in front of the ice for hours it seemed before I decided to try skating.
When I went to the front desk, there was a boy and girl working behind it. The boy looked around 17 and the girl looked about the same age. The boy had blond hair and blue eyes. The girl was a brunnette and had green eyes. They smiled as I got closer and I noticed the boy was checking me out.
The girl laughed when I told him,
"My eyes are up here."
He looked up and and blushed a tomatoe red at being caught and I chuckled.
The girl then spoked up and said,
"Finally want to stop staring at the ice and actually skate on it."
"Yes I would actually"-Bella
"Alright what size skate?"-the girl
"Size 9 please"-Bela
"That will be $5.39"-the girl
I gave her the money and she went back and got my skates. She came back and handed them to me.
"thank you" I said
and she replied with a "you're welcome"
I went over to a bench and put on the skates.
As soon as I had them on and tied I went out to the ice. I stepped out on it with my right foot then my left and soon I was skating not very well, but with my clumsiness every one know I have I would say that I was doing well. After an hour I had it to the basics. I could even twirl and hop with out falling and soon I was speeding up my speed witch landed me a good fall. I kept skating till it was getting dark and as I was starting to step out of the rink I almost ran into some one. I hadn't noticed anyone was watching me.
"Your good" he said
"Thanks" I replied
He then asked how long Ive been skating and when I told him today was my first day ever skating he was flabbergasted. He then went on telling me that I had potential. Then it was my turn to be flabbergasted.
"Whats your name?"
I replied with "Bella"
"Well Bella your in luck. I just happen to be a figure skater coach and I am looking for a client. You have a talent that could get you to the olympic games. Would you like to be a figure skater. I was shocked I never thought I could be that good at anything. The only thing going through my head was "Me the clutz a figure skater" then I looked up and said "I would be honnored to be a figure skater and you being my coach."
He then told me to jog for 30 minutes when I woke up then to be at the rink a 6 the next morning. Then i went home.
